Source of Recipe


Gourmet, July 1996






List of Ingredients



• 2 cups strawberries, hulled
  
• 2 cups raspberries, picked over
  
• 2-1/2 cups fresh orange juice
  
• 1/2 cup superfine sugar, plus additional to taste
  
• 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice, or to taste
  
• Seltzer water or club soda
  






Instructions



1. In a blender, blend berries, orange juice, 1/2 cup sugar and lime juice until smooth. Force purée through a fine sieve into a large measuring cup or bowl, pressing hard on solids.
   
   
2. Chill purée, covered, until cold. Stir in additional sugar. (Purée keeps, covered and chilled, for 2 days.)
   
   
3. Fill tall glasses with ice and add enough berry purée to fill each glass three-quarters full. Top off drinks with seltzer water or club soda, and stir well.
